XEMW-AM is a radio station on 1260 AM in San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora. It is owned by Radio Grupo OIR and is known as Sonido Zeta, carrying a grupera format.

History

XEMW received its concession on January 20, 1962. It was owned by Francisco González Magallanes and originally broadcast on 1270 kHz as a 1,000-watt daytimer.

On February 1, 1978, the concession was transferred to XEMW, S.A. de C.V. The station had moved to 1260 by the late 1980s, which allowed it to begin nighttime service.

The name of the station is evidence of Radio Grupo OIR's roots in Grupo Radio Centro - Sonido Zeta was the original name of GRC's La Z format.
